norwich City Executive Director.... on 16:57 - Sep 22 with 3004 views | burnbudgiesburn | Can work both ways that... not wanting to seem to be biased against us. In reality, this is a box ticking exercise - they would have to give Town some really good explanation as to why recent precedent was not being followed. Wonder what options Town would have for appeal should it not - I was always under the impression you couldn't use lawfare, but Citeh have rather dispelled that theory recently. |  | |  |

If it came to it, I have zero doubt Ashton would involve lawyers. As he should. |  |

And what odds we'd lose the replay |  |

norwich City Executive Director.... on 17:18 - Sep 22 with 2540 views | exeterblue10 | I'd have thought the fact that Town have scored twice and Blackburn have conceded (I think) four times after the 90th minute already this season, shows that the game was far from over. |  | |  |

16/5 if the odds for this game were used or a 24% chance as per Betfair exchange. |  | |  |

Speaking of precedent’s can anyone think of a time when a football authority in this country offered a ‘really good explanation’ for a decision? |  | |  |

....about £5,000 available for additional expenses incurred due to a match being abandoned. If you ask they might give you some of that. |  |

Would it not make sense to make the eventual replayed match free entry for all. I'm sure those with original tickets will have coaches paid for as courtesy too. Surely Blackburn have made their money on the original fixture and thus they would also be making money on the sales once inside the ground. Would be good to have a full house too. |  | |  |

It's called a forecast for a reason, it's far from a certainty and the ground conditions are the critical factor rather than the rain. Blackburn's pitch clearly wasn't up to it. Others in the area managed to see a game out. |  |

All their costs in getting a match on (staff, policing, power, maintanance etc.) will also be doubled. I'm not sure selling a few pies, pints and hot dogs will cover that. |  |
